He who is plenteously provided for from within needs but little from without.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheNo two men see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will apply in different ways a principle that they both acknowledge.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheHe who wishes to exert a useful influence must be careful to insult nothing. Let him not be troubled by what seems absurd, but concentrate his energies to the creation of what is good. He must not demolish, but build. He must raise temples where mankind may come and partake of the purest pleasure.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
